Operation

The BCA150 is designed for simple and intuitive operation. Before operating the charger,

it must be properly connected to a source of AC Power and to the batteries as shown in

Installation.

Charging a battery

1. Move the Power Switch to the ON position.

2. The Power LED will glow green indicating that the unit is powered ON. The Output LED(s)

will also glow corresponding to the charge of the battery. See LED Indicators.

3. Once the batteries are fully charged, the Output LED will glow green. The unit will

maintain the batteries at the oat voltage as long as they connected.

4. You can check the battery’s charge using a voltmeter or multimeter at the battery.

Adjusting the charging voltage

The charging voltage can be adjusted over a range of ±0.6V (±1.2V for the 24V model) to suit

your specic charging needs. To adjust the charging voltage:

1. Using a small at-blade screwdriver rotate the Output Voltage Adjust potentiometer.

Rotate clockwise to increase the output voltage.

2. Rotate it counterclockwise to decrease the output voltage.

3. You can check the charging voltage using the integrated digital voltmeter.

LED Indicators

The BCA150 features several indicator LEDs on its top panel to display the unit’s operating

condition. Their meanings are detailed below.

POWER:

This LED glows green when the unit is connected to an AC power source and energized.

OUTPUT 1 & OUTPUT 2:

These LEDs indicate what stage of charging that the connected battery is undergoing.

• If the LED is glowing red, the battery is in the Bulk stage of the charging cycle.

• If the LED is glowing yellow, the battery is in the Float stage of the charging cycle.

• If the LED is glowing green, the battery is completely charged. The unit will maintain

the battery in this state as long as it is connected, so it always ready for service.

8 9

The BCA150 charges batteries using either a two-stage charging prole. A two-stage

charging prole occurs in two stages.

During the bulk stage, the battery draws a constant current (Output Current) from the charger.

This causes the battery’s voltage to rise until nally reaching a voltage slightly higher than the

battery’s rated capacity, the oat voltage. The oat voltage is higher than the rated voltage to

compensate for the characteristic discharge of idle batteries.

Then during the oat stage, the battery is held at the oat voltage the current reduces as

necessary to maintain it at this voltage. The battery can be left connected to the charger inde-

nitely, which will maintain it.

A two-stage charger is recommended in most instances (over a three-stage charger) since it is

the most versatile. The battery is also subjected to lower voltages than in three-stage charging

and therefore is less stressed. In addition, a reasonable load can be put on the battery without

altering its ability to keep the battery at full charge.

Mounting

Mount the unit in a WELL VENTILATED and DRY area with at least one inch (2.54 cm) of clear-

ance around the extruded vents. The unit should be mounted on a vertical surface with the

drip shield facing upward as shown below.

Installation

DC Output Connection

This unit is equipped with two sets of Phoenix VDFK block connectors to serve separate DC

output connections. Connect the batteries to this connection using an appropriate gauge of

wire for the current (see Specications for more information). These connections are wired as

follows:

RED: Positive Battery Terminal

BLACK: Negative Battery Terminal

These connections can be used to charge up to two battery banks simultaneously. If charging

a single battery, connect the positive terminal of that battery to both positive DC outputs, this

will reduce strain on the connection.

AC Input Connection

This unit is equipped with a 3-pin Bulgin AC Inlet (6.3mm) Tab Flange Mount to serve as an AC

input connection. Your unit is supplied with an IEC320 cable for connection to an AC power

source, if the supplied cable does not t your AC receptacle, any other IEC320 cable can be

used.
